All Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza Golden Balls Locations

Shen is back once again and he wants you to find his Golden Balls for him. If you collect all seven Golden Balls then he will grant you any wish you want, as long as you dream of owning a middle-aged man’s underwear. If you are stuck looking for Shen’s Golden Balls so you can return them to him, we have everything you need to snatch them up.

Here are the locations of all seven Golden Balls in Like a Dragon: Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii.

All Golden Ball locations in Pirate Yakuza in Hawaii

If you read Shen’s text about the Golden Balls he will give you hints as to where you can find each one.

Chinese Medicine Shop

The first Golden Ball can be found in Chinatown on the west side of Hawaii. Head for Wan Shang Tong Herbal Medicine, the shop the text is mentioning. You will see a poster at the back of the shop featuring a man and a woman. Aim your grapple hook at the poster to claim your first Golden Ball.

Sushi Restaurant

The second Golden Ball can be found outside Shinobi Sushi at the very north east of Hawaii. There is a statue of a ninja outside the restaurant on top of the roof. Aim your grapple hook up at the ninja to claim your second Golden Ball.

Seaside Avenue pool

Seaside Avenue runs north to south on the east side of Hawaii. You can find it just to the east of Worldwide Market Village where Alo-Happy is based. There is a small nook facing west at the south end of the avenue. Here there is a wall with small holes so that you can see a pool on the other side. Peer through the gap and use your grapple to claim the third Golden Ball.

Pawn shop masked doll

There are four pawn shops in Hawaii, but the one you want is Treasure Select Pawn (Hula Ave.) to the south east of the map. In the window you can see a mannequin dressed like a luchador. Enter the shop and aim your grapple at the mannequin from the side to claim the fourth Golden Ball.

Man chasing sickos

This is the only Golden Ball that can’t be found out in the wild. Instead you need to start the side story for Sicko Snap. Get on the trolley at Aloha Beach and after you finish the first part of the side story you’ll be able to talk to Kuroki and exchange your points. If you did well in the mini game you should have enough to purchase the fifth Golden Ball which is at the end of his inventory. If not, give Sicko Snap another go so you can purchase it.

Freak on top of Dunghill

For the last two Golden Balls you’ll need to go to Madlantis. If you stand in front of the bar, Dunghill, you will be able to see a grapple point. Once you are on top of the building, look up and around for another grapple point. You will see a man in a rather fetching outfit with a Golden Ball you are able to grapple.

Sweaty man near the Coliseum

The final Golden Ball is just to the side of the coliseum reception. You’ll see a man dancing behind a barrier to the one side and you can grapple the final Golden Ball from him.

Golden Ball rewards in Pirate Yakuza

Shen will text you once you have all seven Golden Balls. You have to meet him at the docks in Hawaii and he will thank you for bringing him his balls. He says he will grant you a wish in return, but it doesn’t matter what you choose here. No matter what you ask for you’ll receive Shen-san’s Panties, which are mostly useless but sell for $15,000.

The main reward for completing this substory is that Shen will join you as a new crewmate. Unfortunately, he’s not that impressive, but you still need to pick him up if you want to collect them all.
